Canned Pickled Spicy Asparagus

Canned Pickled Spicy Asparagus

by Pam on August 24, 2014

My mother in law and her husband were here for a quick visit this weekend. Earlier this summer, I talked to her about teaching me to can her very delicious spicy asparagus so she brought her equipment and recipe with her. We grabbed 8 lbs of asparagus and spent the afternoon canning. It was much easier than I anticipated and so much fun! My good friend Currié came over to help and my daughter helped too. The hardest part about this recipe is waiting two weeks before trying these asparagus out! Thankfully, I have had her spicy pickled asparagus several times in the past so I can tell you that this recipes is amazing! Thanks for teaching me Fran – it was so much fun being in the kitchen with you!!! xoxo

Wash and rinse canning jars in a sink of hot soapy water or in the dishwasher; keep hot until ready to use.

Sterilize the mouth lids in a saucepan of hot boiling water for a few minutes. Place a few spoons on the bottom of the pan to prevent the mouth lids from touching the bottom of the pan while they boil.

Wash asparagus well, but gently, under running water. Cut stems from the bottom to leave spears with tips that fit into the canning jar with a little less than 1/2 inch headspace. Peel and wash garlic cloves. Place four garlic cloves at the bottom of each jar along with the dill seed. Tightly pack asparagus into jars with the blunt ends down then add one spicy pepper to each jar.

In a large pot, combine water, vinegar, and kosher salt. Bring to a boil.

Ladle boiling hot brine over the spears, leaving ½-inch headspace.

Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace if needed. Wipe rims of jars with a clean paper towel; apply two-piece metal canning lids.

Place the jars into the canner making sure the water just covers the lids then bring to a rapid boil.

Place lid on the canner and boil for 10 minutes. Remove from the canner and place on a towel lined counter to cool. You will hear a popping sound from the jars when they seal. Once they have cooled for a few hours, press your finger in the center of each lid – if it pops then it didn’t seal properly. Place into the refrigerator and eat them up first (after two weeks). If they don’t pop back that means they are sealed. Place the sealed jars into the pantry. Let them sit for two weeks before opening and eating. Enjoy.

Quick Refrigerator Spicy Dill Green Beans

Quick Refrigerator Spicy Dill Green Beans

by Pam on August 3, 2014

We all loved the Quick Refrigerator Dill Pickles[1] so much I decided to make a batch of refrigerator spicy dill green beans. I used the same brine as I did for the pickles but added more fresh dill to give them an extra kick of flavor. It was hard to wait all week to try them but they were worth the wait. I packed one of these jars of green beans in a cooler when we went to a concert over the weekend and we all, friends included, thought they were tasty. My kids LOVED also loved them. I can’t wait to try pickling other veggies too!

Wash two pint size mason jars and lids in hot soapy water, rinse and dry well.

Cut the ends off the green beans, making sure they aren’t taller than the jar.

Place two cloves of garlic, a large handful of fresh dill, half a tablespoon (1 1/2 teaspoons) of coriander seeds, whole peppercorns, and 1 pepper into each jar.

In a small saucepan over medium low heat, combine the sugar, kosher salt, and white vinegar together. Whisk vigorously until the sugar and salt dissolve. Add the water to the mixture. Set aside.

In the two clean mason jars, tightly pack the green beans evenly into each jar. Pour the brine mixture over the green beans. Tap the jars on the counter to release any air bubbles and top off the jar with extra water if any green beans are exposed. Place the lids on the jars and screw on the rings until they are tight. Leave the jars in the fridge for a week before tasting.
